It Appears The US is Looking Forward to Serious Conflict with Russia


From Vlad Tepes Blog:

It appears that the US is quite anxious for serious conflict with Russia.
1a: There was a massive hack of a Russian email service right around the time the Obama admin promised a proportional response to accusations of Russian hacking of the DNC, which is most likely actually done by the FBI and NSA.
The US and the UK have rejected a Russian and Syrian offer of a temporary “pause” on airstrikes in Aleppo as the basis for reopening talks, saying there has to be a credible and durable ceasefire that should initially last as long as 48 hours.
Moscow had announced a temporary halt in the military push ahead of a planned eight-hour humanitarian pause on Thursday, designed to give rebel militants and the injured a chance to leave the city.
The US State Department said the Russian offer was too little, too late, and the UN humanitarian spokesman said that relief workers needed longer than eight hours to help extricate the injured.

Considering a scenario where Trump wins on Nov 8th, can Obama legally extend his term indefinitely if the country declares war and is in the middle of a big conflict?

By "legally" I'm referring to what the constitution allows.

No.

Double no. Even Lincoln had to stand for reelection in 1864. And if you think the doings of this election season are unsettling do a little study on that one.
